4. Covenants and Representations. You hereby acknowledge that Your duties with jcpenney involved and continue to involve access to and creation of jcpenney’s confidential or proprietary information and trade secrets (collectively, the “Proprietary Information”). The Proprietary Information has been and will continue to be developed by jcpenney at substantial cost and constitutes valuable and unique property of jcpenney. You further acknowledge that due to the nature of Your position, You had and continue to have access to Proprietary Information affecting plans and operations in every location in which jcpenney does business or plans to do business throughout the world, and Your decisions and recommendations on behalf of jcpenney affect its operations throughout the world. Accordingly, You acknowledge that the foregoing makes it reasonably necessary for jcpenney to protect its business interests. In that regard and to that end, You and jcpenney have agreed that a portion of the compensation described in Section 3 is to compensate You for Your agreement to the following covenants.
4.1 Confidentiality. You covenant and agree that You will not, without the prior written consent of jcpenney, prior to or following Your Employment Termination Date disclose to any person not employed by jcpenney, or use in connection with engaging in competition with jcpenney, any Proprietary Information of jcpenney. For this purpose “Proprietary Information” includes all nonpublic information relating to jcpenney’s business, including but not limited to information, plans and strategies regarding suppliers, pricing, marketing, customers, hirings and terminations, employee performance
and evaluations, internal reviews and investigations, short term and long range plans, acquisitions and divestitures, advertising, information systems, sales objectives and performance, as well as any other nonpublic information, the nondisclosure of which may provide a competitive or economic advantage to jcpenney. Proprietary Information will not be deemed to have become public where it has been disclosed or made public by or through anyone acting in violation of a contractual, ethical, or legal responsibility to maintain its confidentiality.
4.2 Nonsolicitation of Employees. You covenant and agree that for a period of 12 months following Your Employment Termination Date, You will not, without the prior written consent of jcpenney, on Your own behalf or on behalf of any person, firm or company, directly or indirectly, attempt to influence, persuade or induce, or assist any other person in so persuading or inducing, any of the employees of jcpenney (or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) to give up his or her employment with jcpenney (or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates), and that You will not directly or indirectly solicit or hire employees of jcpenney (or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) for employment with any other employer.
4.3 Noninterference with Business Relations. You covenant and agree that for a period of 12 months following Your Employment Termination Date, You will not, without the prior written consent of jcpenney, on Your own behalf or on behalf of any person, firm or company, directly or indirectly, attempt to influence, persuade or induce, or assist any other person in so persuading or inducing, any person, firm or company to cease doing business with, reduce its business with, or decline to commence a business relationship with, jcpenney (or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates).
4.4 Noncompetition. You covenant that for a period of 12 months following Your Employment Termination Date, You will not undertake work for a Competing Business. For purposes of this covenant, “undertake work for” will include performing services, whether paid or unpaid, in any capacity, including as an officer, director, owner, consultant, employee, agent or representative, where such services involve the performance of similar duties or oversight responsibilities as those performed by You at any time during the 12-month period preceding Your Employment Termination Date. The term “Competing Business” will mean any business that, at the time of the determination:
|
(a) operates (i) any retail department store, specialty store, or general merchandise store; (ii) any retail catalog, telemarketing, or direct mail business; (iii) any Internet-based or other electronic department store or general merchandise retailing business; (iv) any other retail business that sells goods, merchandise, or services of the types sold by jcpenney, including its divisions, affiliates, and licensees; or (v) any business that provides buying office or sourcing services to any business of the types referred to above; and
|
|
(b) conducts any business of the types referred to in (a) in the United States, Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or another country in which jcpenney, including its divisions, affiliates, and licensees, conducts a similar business.
|
Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the express written consent of the General Counsel of jcpenney, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, You may provide consulting services to, or serve on the board of directors of a Competing Business. This covenant will not apply solely with respect to Your services as a member of the board of directors for any business in which You were active as a director as of December 1, 2011.
4.5 Injunctive Relief. If You breach any of the covenants and representations contained in this Section 4, jcpenney will have no further obligation to pay You that portion of the Transition Services Compensation intended to compensate You for the covenants contained in this Section 4, or if such amount has already been paid to You jcpenney will have the right to seek repayment of a prorated portion of compensation described in Section 3. Such prorated portion will be determined by multiplying the portion of the compensation described in Section 3 by a fraction the numerator of which is the total number of days remaining in the 12-month covenant period, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such covenant period. You acknowledge that any such breach is likely to result in immediate and irreparable harm to jcpenney for which money damages are likely to be inadequate. Accordingly, You consent to injunctive and other appropriate equitable relief without the necessity of bond in excess of $500.00 upon the institution of proceedings therefor by jcpenney in order to protect jcpenney’s rights hereunder.
5. Cooperation. You agree to make yourself reasonably available to jcpenney to respond to requests by jcpenney for information concerning matters involving facts or events relating to jcpenney, and to assist jcpenney as reasonably requested with respect to pending and future litigation, arbitrations or other dispute resolutions. jcpenney will reimburse You for Your reasonable travel expenses and other out-of-pocket costs incurred as a result of Your assistance under this Section 5. To the extent applicable, in accordance with Code section 409A and Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv)(A) or any successor thereto, any payments or reimbursement of travel or other out-of-pocket expenses which jcpenney is required to make under the foregoing provision will meet the requirements below. jcpenney will reimburse You for any such expenses, promptly upon delivery of reasonable documentation; provided, however, all invoices for reimbursement of expenses must be submitted to jcpenney and paid in a lump sum payment by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. All expenses must be incurred within a 20-year period following the involuntary termination. The amount of expenses paid or eligible for reimbursement in one year will not affect the expenses paid or eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. The right to payment or reimbursement under this Section 5 will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
6. Releases.
6.1 You, on Your behalf and on behalf of Your heirs, descendants, ancestors and dependents, executors, administrators, assigns, successors-in-interest and predecessors-in-interest, hereby release and forever discharge jcpenney, and its respective current or former officers, directors, employees and agents, whether in their official or individual capacities, and the current and former trustees and administrators, whether in their
